Notes from Pawfect Match Rescue

Hi, I’m Nelson! I’m a 43-lb happy boy who loves people, kids, and other dogs. I’m friendly, easygoing, and always excited to be around my family.

Even though I’m not exactly small (43lbs), I’m pretty sure I’m a lap dog. I love being close to my people and will happily curl up for cuddles whenever I get the chance.

I’m such a cheerful guy that my tail never stops wagging. In fact, I wagged it so much I had to be treated for “happy tail” syndrome! Life makes me excited, and I’m ready to share all that joy with a family of my own.

The adoption fee is $400, which covers food, vetting, microchip and the spay/neuter surgery performed by a rescue-affiliated vet. All dogs receive a wellness visit and are up to date on shots appropriate for age. Breed and size is Pawfect Match Rescue's best guess and not guaranteed. Please go to https://www.pawfectmatch.org/animals/search? and search on the dog name to see more photos, browse the profile, and complete an application

  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Pawfect Match Rescue, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
